After my divorce, I started to have good luck
Chapter 1335 - 694: Postpartum Care Center
Chen Feng and Sun Xiaorui sleeping in separate rooms was undoubtedly a good thing for Wu Mengting.
The three of them lived together, and Chen Feng and Sun Xiaorui used to sleep in the same room, while she was left to live alone next door, which surely felt unfair to her.
Now that they had separated, at least on the surface, she and Sun Xiaorui were on equal footing, which seemed quite fair.
This also clearly indicated that Chen Feng and Sun Xiaorui had relented.
Sun Xiaorui giving in was expected, but that Chen Feng agreed to separate rooms was what mattered most to her.
This made her previously suffocating feelings lighten considerably.
The next day, after the two women went to work, Chen Feng finished packing up, and drove to Bibo Garden.
He arrived at a little past eight in the morning, and both women had already gotten up to wait for him.
Chen Feng didn’t go upstairs to fetch them, but just called them and asked each to bring someone along.
First, he picked up Liu Ying and her mother, then Hong Xiaodan and her nanny.
The car fit five people perfectly.
With Mrs. Liu and another nanny, Chen Feng and the two women didn’t say much in the car, only giving a brief overview of the three maternity centers they were going to visit. One was originally within the maternity hospital, but given the hospital environment wasn’t suitable for pregnant women’s rest, making it feel like staying in a hospital, Chen Feng ruled it out later.
Another one, found through online and phone inquiries, was reasonably priced with good reviews.
According to the distance of the three maternity centers, Chen Feng took them first to one only three or four kilometers away from Bibo Garden.
This center was actually located within a hotel, and the hotel was a five-star establishment. The maternity center occupied one entire floor.
Thus, if a pregnant woman stayed there, she could enjoy the services of staying at a five-star hotel.
The five of them arrived, and two of them were heavily pregnant, so the staff at the maternity center warmly welcomed them.
The accommodation conditions here were indeed good, but unfortunately, the external environment wasn’t ideal. Outside the hotel’s front door was a wide busy road with constant traffic, set in a bustling commercial area. The nearest park was a kilometer away.
This setting was more suited for leisure than for prenatal care and rest.
Moreover, the shared facilities like the baby bath and mommy recovery rooms were very small, and the hotel didn’t have many public or leisure areas.
After they toured the maternity center on-site, Chen Feng internally dismissed the option, and the two women weren’t very satisfied either.
The second place they visited was an apartment-style center in a newly built residential area by Riverside, with ample space.
The smallest rooms for pregnant women were sixty square meters, and the largest exceeded one hundred square meters, all with large floor-to-ceiling windows having views of the rolling river, with sunlight reaching the bed on sunny days.
The residential area also contained good greenery, small gardens, and various public facilities, with a large square and park a few minutes’ walk away.
They seemed fairly satisfied after checking out this location.
The last center was farther away in a scenic area, and Chen Feng took nearly 40 minutes to drive there.
This maternity center was at the foot of a mountain, surrounded by mountains, water, trees, and flowers, with very good scenery.
Most importantly, the center had its own independent building, a manor with a blend of Chinese and Western architectural styles.
The entrance had a large parking lot and expansive green landscapes, and entering the manor revealed large lawns and various flower and plant arrangements.
Once everyone arrived, they were captivated by the atmosphere and the landscape of greenery.
After inquiries and a tour, everyone was highly satisfied with the environment and services of this maternity center.
The most expensive package here was 198,000 every 28 days, equivalent to 200,000 a month, with key services including a professional obstetrician, a nutritionist, and three nurses providing round-the-clock service.
Cheaper options were available too, at a little over 60,000 every 28 days.
Maternity centers charged by 28-day cycles, and though expensive, they indeed were quite profitable.
But for wealthy people, the cost was negligible; what mattered was ensuring their women and children could enjoy safe and comforting services here.
In terms of prenatal care and childbirth, most families are willing to spend, let alone truly wealthy families.
Chen Feng was also willing to spend; otherwise, he wouldn’t have suggested sending the two women to a maternity center.
After touring the three centers, Chen Feng was most satisfied with the last one, despite it being further from Bibo Garden and Red Villa Bay; as long as the two stayed happily and were well-served, it was best.
Liu Ying and Hong Xiaodan were also satisfied with the third one, but felt it was too far from the city center, which would be inconvenient for Chen Feng to visit them often in the future.
Thus, they were a bit hesitant.
This wasn’t something to rush; they could discuss it slowly once back home.
On the way back, they shared their views and agreed that the third was the best, despite being the most expensive, but it was undoubtedly worth the price.
Mrs. Liu and the nanny felt the same way.
But Liu Ying and Hong Xiaodan didn’t make a decision immediately; in front of the two elders, it wasn’t easy to say the place was too far for Chen Feng to visit frequently, only finding a chance to mention it to him privately.
It was almost noon by then, and Chen Feng took everyone to a nearby restaurant for lunch before driving back to Bibo Garden.
The group first went to Liu Ying’s place, where Chen Feng was pulled into the room by the two women.
After the two women expressed their concerns, Chen Feng promised, "I’ll try to visit you more often, once a week should be doable unless something urgent comes up that delays me."
Hearing Chen Feng’s words, the two women felt reassured and decided immediately on the third maternity center.
Chen Feng had no objections and said, "You can stay there for a month first, experience it, and if it’s comfortable you can continue staying there; otherwise, we can find another place."
Liu Ying nodded and smiled, "That’s what I think too. It looks good, but we won’t know if it truly is until we’ve experienced it firsthand."
Hong Xiaodan added, "Their high rates should reflect good service; otherwise, they wouldn’t stay in business. When we visited, we saw that many pregnant women were already staying there. There weren’t many empty rooms left."
Liu Ying agreed, "That’s true, and seeing their high occupancy rate was what persuaded me. The first place we visited didn’t seem to have high occupancy."
